Dawson\nBe inspired to innovate high quality outdoor play experiences for people of all ages and abilities by aligning evidence-based design best practices to inclusive play destinations to encourage active\, independent\, and meaningful play for all. Both a physical and social event\, inclusive play is not solely about physically accessing an environment\, but what experiences happen once an individual gets there. Learn inclusive design principles that go beyond minimum accessibility and intentionally address the needs of the whole child. \n12:45-1:45: “Therapeutic Recreation” [1 HSW]\nDee Nance\, CTRS\, CEDAP\, City of Hoover\nAttendees will learn about Therapeutic Recreation and the role that it plays in an inclusive environment. Then they will be introduced to the concept of “people first” language and will learn about its importance. Participants will also learn the value of including a CTRS/ADA specialist\, or a person with a disability\, on their design team. Learn challenges and solutions to local project case studies. Dee thinks of everyone who wants to experience parks and playgrounds – all ages and all disabilities. Let’s all learn to think like Dee. \n2:00-3:00: “Accessible Site Design: Point A to B” [1 HSW]\nDale Brasher\, Goodwyn Mills Cawood\nDale will discuss accessible site design and the challenges site accessibility requirements can present. Though your design does have to meet ADA requirements\, there are ways to be creative and inclusive\, while not sacrificing the quality of your design. Dale will share case studies and project applications for inclusive site design. \n  \nSpeakers & Topics:\n \nJennie Sumrell\, PlayCore\nDirector of Education: Programs\, Partnerships & Professional Development\nJennie Sumrell has worked with children and families of all abilities for nearly ten years.

He has eight years of experience in a wide range of projects across the Southeast in land planning\, sports field design\, stream restoration\, and urban design.
